Romney Looks Like the Next Pres

Discussion in 'Politics' started by jem, Apr 13, 2012.

  1. Absolutely. Pres. Obama is currently on a tight rope. The hard left is pissed, the hard right was born pissed, so now it is all about the middle. What I want to see is which demographic is going to stand and which is going to sit. Obama I think has hitched his wagon to white women, the rest of the coalition is locked up almost by default.

    The key, in my mind, is whether or not there are more conservative or liberal white women. And whether that bent will be enuf to counter the white male non-gay vote.

  2. So in other words it is logic and reasoning (men) vs emotion (women).

    Obama is looking more and more like Carter in 1980. What is keeping the race interesting is that Romney is no Reagan.

    The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Thursday shows Mitt Romney attracting 48% of the vote, while President Obama earns 44%. Four percent (4%) prefer some other candidate, and another four percent (4%) are undecided.

    Matchup results are updated daily at 9:30 a.m. Eastern (sign up for free daily e-mail update).

    Romney now leads Obama for the first time in Wisconsin where the president's support has fallen to its lowest level to date. Former Governor Tommy Thompson remains well ahead of Democratic Congresswoman Tammy Baldwin in Wisconsin’s U.S. Senate race.

    Romney also leads in North Carolina and Missouri. Obama leads in Pennsylvania. The race is a toss-up in Iowa, Ohio, Virginia, Florida and Colorado.

    Four years ago, after wrapping up the Democratic nomination, Obama led John McCain every single day during the month of June. His average lead was five percentage points. Obama eventually won by seven points. In the first 14 days of June for Election 2012, Romney has held the lead 11 times, the candidates have been tied twice, and Obama has been on top once.

  7. Not usual compared to the last two elections.It tightens up when both parties have their nominees.Bush had a similar lead of around 10 points over Kerry in June 04

    When Romney takes the lead for a month it will mean something
